I test drove the magnum and the 300 though and those didn't really have blind spots so much as blind zip codes 
pretty much anything that deviates from the standard box-on-top-of-box has blind spots, and the more the designs are pushed, the worse visibility gets. they need to really go to a rear camera system already and get rid of the outdated rear view mirror idea, because then design could get taken to a whole new level. who wants to help me develop a system to sell to the manufacturers and get rich off of? 8) |
Yeah, the Magnum does have some massive blind spots. I belive Infinity/Nissan, Volvo, and VW have system using cameras and sensors in the side of the car to detect cars in your blind spot, and will caution you when you are about to turn. Infinity will start using it this year I belive on there new M35/45.
